I would say, buy a smaller card OR a bigger case !

The Pundit-R is a "bit" small a PVR-150MCE will JUST fit in there, it's also get pretty warm due to the ... no space !

Not true 8-) my pundit R has a NOVA-T PCI Card in the bottom pci slot - its the older of the PCI card models, and it does fit, you just have to insert the card into the riser module when you've removed it, and then bend the chassis of the pundit out the way while you slide it back in.

My old HTPC was and Asus Pundit - I had twin full size nova T's in there. Like martynah reccomended you have to remove the riser completely and use the bottom slot. With a bit of wiggling and bending it will fit. I got another one in the top slot as well but I had to remove the card mounting plate and the PCI cradle needed major sugery with the hacksaw and pliers!

Just be brave and good luck

My HTPC is also an ASUS Pundit-r, (which is a very nice looking case!) and I managed to fit an Hauppauge PVR 500 into it with bending the bottom of the case outwards a bit and removing the "funnel" from the fan. My next plan is to exchange the fan that came with the case for a nice papst fan in order to huch the machine up a bit.
